What is filling the void for you during the Tour shutdown? (NO CORONAVIRUS RELATED POSTS)

Pulled my two summer-only cars out of winter storage - spent the weekend (after golf) waxing and cleaning. My arms feel like rubber this morning.

Practicing my short game in a hospital gown. Never can be too prepared.

Been spending more time over at the Jo-Ann Fabrics forum. Shirley started this " best ever running stitch" thread. It's like a GOAT thread here at WRX - same difference.

Lol. Everytime you take a swing it’s “ooopsie “ as the back door swings open and then closed again. Coincidentally that’s why you’ve received two thumbs down from anonymous members of your HOA regarding your yard. It’s not the petunias they are worried about. It’s the mental patient with a wedge doing his Arnold Palmer abbreviated finish with his back porch showing in the transition.

as for Jo-ann . I haven’t been back in a while but I am anxiously awaiting the spring alpaca ? yarn colors . Specifically the organically dyed versions . I have a couple pairs of socks and a baby blanket to get started on .

I rarely watch mens pro golf on tv so I won't be missing much. I do like watching the Players(partly because I played the course) and was really curious to watch it without fans in attendance but oh well. I wouldn't have watched any more until the Masters. Delay to the baseball season will suck though.

So many people are naive right now with regards to what is happening with the economy and industry. People think that we can just close down everything for a few weeks and everything will be hunky-dory, and things will start right back up again without missing a beat. So many have so little knowledge of how the business world works, especially if you are a self-proprietor.

Specifically here in America, I think we are going to look back on this time period and wonder what the hell we did. Not just in industry, in every aspect of life. We've got schoolkids who will now lose a year of their life because schools will be shut down for the remainder of the school year. And that includes college students who now won't be entering the professional world because they won't be graduating. There's been no perspective on risk vs damage to the overall health of the general public in an economic sense. Its terrible to say, but we are instituting an economic disaster for 300+ million people for an extended period of time in order to save a few thousand lives.

Apart from actually playing i went through a whole tv series in 1 weekend, Think i've only ever watched 1 full tv series before (Fortitude, which is fantastic)

 

It was called The Outsider, 10 episodes at an hour long each, seemed like forever but it was alright, i couldn't sit through another re-run of a past players champ highlights, that are basically on a loop on Sky sports at the moment

Nothing exotic - just for fun.

1984 911 Carrera Coupe with only 47K original miles and a 1989 MB 560SL with 82K original miles.

I can do most of the mechanical work myself and enjoy the smells and sounds of German engineering!

Just replaced the timing chain, tensioner, guides and sprockets in the 560. It took me 3 full Saturdays - 27 hours.

Speaking of sewing, my wife just started this morning a just announced 4 week “vacation” from the high school and coincidentally I ordered over the weekend a cool peekaboo patch of colorful peace signs to put on some jeans I love and recently ripped at the knee. I’m working out with the kids the over under on her wanting to actually do this for me even with all the newfound free time. She was lounging watching funny baby goat vids on YouTube with one of the dogs nestled on top of her when I went home for lunch, lol. I may have to look at Ferg’s guy.

Awesome. I’m actually an odd ball myself ( shocker ) with cars. I build pretty mainstream stuff. But I wouldn’t own any of them . Not if I planned IT.

I have a hankering to build a aluminum bodied roadster. Maybe not of any original make. Maybe a one off version. But an aluminum bodied Mercedes roadster is what started me thinking. I love the bare brushed look. Even had the brain storm that i might do it 100% from alloy. As in frame and suspension parts. But that’s a next 10 years project if you’re talking making each part. It’s probably a bad idea as I am prone to obsession , and a project like that might cause me to have marital problems ( lol). Sort of a modern acting Art Deco piece.

this is what happens to me when I have idle time on my hands.
